Do you see paths where others see walls? Are you a problem-solver? Do you find ways to connect with others, even when you might disagree? Do you believe that solutions can be more effective than verdicts? Then becoming a mediator or arbitrator may be right for you.

This complimentary lunchtime CLE webinar will feature four diverse attorneys who mediate and arbitrate for public and private programs. Learn how being a neutral has enhanced their careers, and about their paths from training to practice. Get insights and advice specific to diverse attorneys who are considering adding mediation or arbitration to a legal practice. This program will provide specific information about training, scholarships and mentorship programs for diverse attorneys, and other paths to practice.

CLE materials and Zoom invitation will be sent to registrants in the week prior to the event.
